Dear Tom. Saddened to learn of Lynette's passing and my condolences. I remember you and Lynette coming to our studio to learn about painting with pastel and how Lynette picked it up quickly. Apologies for not being able to attend the funeral in person today to convey my condolences to you in person.
From - Anne Newman
Tom and family,
Sorry we couldn't join you today for Lynette's service. She was a very special person taken far too early but hope all
the good memories of her get you through the tough times ahead.
Love from Anne and John

So sorry to read of Lynette’s passing. May all of the memories you have help you through this very sad time Tom.
Our thoughts are with you.

To Tom and family,
With tears, I write to offer genuine sympathy in the loss of Lynette. My memories of her at Art are with gratitude and are only good, and her encouragement of my own art meant a lot to me. My one regret is that on learning of our move to Christchurch, her words to me...."we will come and visit you, won't we Tom " could not be realised.
With love and prayers Joy Verkaaik
